Develop:Brighton 2025

'Grow Wild' Catches Bugs, Discovers Plants, and Creates Biomes Grow Wild is a cozy sandbox style game where you can discover new plants, find bugs, and watch the world change around you.

I wrote about the cozy, plant-related game Grow Wild by @spectrum48.bsky.social for @indiegamesplus.bsky.social, after seeing it at @developconference.com: indiegamesplus.com/grow-wild-pr...

'Mythmatch' Mixes Match-3 Play With Greek Folklore Mythmatch is a new twist on match-3, giving you a compelling story, interesting worlds, and some fun matching mayhem to enjoy.

I played some of Mythmatch by @oneofmoo.bsky.social - which is a very interesting take on match-3 games, bringing some excitement to the genre, at @developconference.com and wrote about it for @indiegamesplus.bsky.social: indiegamesplus.com/mythmatch-pr...

Still can’t believe @developconference.com is over what a blast!

Thanks to everyone who stopped by our stand and joined the Tombola queue. Big congrats to the prize winners!

My first time attending @developconference.com left me truly moved. I sincerely hope I'll return next year, this time as a gameplay programmer already working in the games industry.
